Still in the throes of research leading to my first ebike build, and thinking I've got most details sorted except still a bit unclear on the controller. I would like a bike that can be minimal in the area of componentry that would either need to be removed or secured for urban street parking. The controller comes in because I plan on running 52/48V with a small motor in the range of 250-300W, and so will need to maintain a limit of power sent to the motor. I understand this is easily accomplished with a Cycle Analyst, but would like to know if a programmable controller can maintain much of the same settings: current limit, low voltage cutout, and maybe even some data logging. It would be ideal to leave the CA off the bike for certain rides, then reconnect on others.
Forgot to mention plans to use a torque (non-PAS) bottom bracket sensor and not sure if any of the controllers from Grin can utilize this for the throttle without the CA.
